Well done to the two fabulous pupils above who have been rewarded for their gifts and talents- congratulations from all of your friends at St Bart’s!

A huge thank you to all of our business partners who contributed their time and effort towards making our pupils’ Developing the Young Workforce week a huge success. Mrs McLean has worked tirelessly over the past few months to create wonderful experiences during Developing  the Young Workforce week for all of our pupils- all of this hard work is very much appreciated! Please keep your eye on twitter and class pages for up to date pictures and records of events.

The week ahead looks like this:

On Monday, Claire Gordon from the NHS dental team will visit us to ensure that all of our dental resources are up to date and our children are able to access them so that their oral health is maintained.

On Tuesday, Ms Doyle will attend a cooperative learning course. We look forward to hearing about the benefits for our pupils. Our Primary 7 pupils are paying a visit to Guidi’s in Coatbridge so that they can learn how to make pizza. Fingers crossed that they bring back some of the fruits of their labours!

On Wednesday, I will be attending a meeting in  our Headquarters for all Central area Head Teacher’s for business updates. I will also meet with some of our catering managers in the afternoon to discuss recent initiatives.

On Thursday, Mrs McLean and I will be interviewing for a part time ASNA post in the school. We look forward to meeting all of the candidates and welcoming them to our fabulous school.
